##Wemby on playing against Jokic
I think I learned a lot and I learned even more when I watched film of his. I think it’s a good experience but it would’ve been better if we had won.
##On the team’s performance
It’s always reads and trying to put the intensity on the first minute so I’m glad if it’s getting better. Our first quarters are usually okay, we gotta be consistent for everything.
##On his stamina
This morning already and coming back from halftime, it’s hard to catch your breath.
##On the Nuggets
I can see why they won it. It’s a very balanced team. Feels like they know each other very well. It’s a great challenge everytime we’re gonna play them, good intensity. I think what’s most beautiful about them is that everyone knows their role.
##On playing centre half the time
It depends on the matchups we got but usually I don’t start at centre, so I get to be the centre when we have the opportunity to make runs and to apply pressure on the opponent. I’ve been playing multiple positions my whole life so I’m comfortable at centre.
##On the biggest improvements/adjustment he’s made in the NBA
I think the defence is where have gotten the most progress so far because I’ve learned a new role. Obviously here we can’t, our presence in the paint can’t be the same as it is in Europe so I have to find new ways. I’ve never really gotten over a screen before this year. I’m getting better and better. I feel very comfortable doing it. I think my range of abilities and defence has increased a lot thanks to the Spurs since I came here.
##On how much time he needed to adjust to screens
Not too long but it was a bit brutal. Starting at training camp it was something brand new, so I had to step up right away. Not too long but it was hard.
##On being the first rookie with tonight’s statline (22 PTS, 11 REB, 2 AST, 6 STL, 4 BLK, 7-16 FG, 2-5 3P, 6-7 FT)
I like bringing something new to the game. I’m glad I can already put my name in history a little bit. It’s a good feeling but I’m a student of the game. One of the best gratitude I can have is having the chase to push it, to take it up a little bit, to make it even better.
##(Français) On watching/getting inspired by Jokic last year during the playoffs compared to squaring up against him tonight
I learned a lot of things tonight. Obviously patience, but mainly when he decides to score, he scores. He’s a special player. But I wasn’t really aware of how different it would be to defend against him. He’s super heavy so I have to box him out differently.
